[1.2.5] Trouble setting up SSL

[rudy]

I am able to successfully set up play application with SSL when I use my own system generated certificate + Key files. 

openssl genrsa 1024 > host.key

openssl req -new -x509 -nodes -sha1 -days 365 -key host.key > host.cert

However, when I use the production key + cert (filename.pfx + filename.pem) it does not work. I rename the files to host.key and host.cert according to the documentation but still not working. I get an error in the browser stating: 

=======================

SSL connection error

Unable to make a secure connection to the server. This may be a problem with the server, or it may be requiring a client

authentication certificate that you don't have.

Error 107 (net::ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR): SSL protocol error.

=======================

The server throws a ClassCastException on the CLI

java.lang.ClassCastException: org.bouncycastle.asn1.cms.ContentInfo cannot be cast to java.security.KeyPair

----------------

Any ideas on how I should proceed?

Could someone point me in the direction of literature that could help me in the resolution?
